The Politeia of Odysseus is a colossal, safe nation, ruled by Ulysses with a fair hand, and notable for its burgeoning Lion population. The democratic, devout population of 3.768 billion Odysseans love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.
The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Spirituality, Welfare, and Education. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Ιθάκη. The average income tax rate is 31.4%, but much higher for the wealthy.
The large but inefficient Odysseusian economy, worth 139 trillion Drachmas a year, is fairly diversified and led by the Tourism industry, with major contributions from Trout Farming, Arms Manufacturing, and Soda Sales. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 37,137 Drachmas, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
A little pushing and pulling is needed for big ships to pass, anti-vaxxers claim that injected children are prone to psychotic breaks when they see the 'Queen of Diamonds' playing card, treason is relative, and a good deed is rewarded with a thank you note attached to a deportation order. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Odysseus's national animal is the Lion, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is Paganism.
Odysseus is ranked 108,160th in the world and 6,127th in Osiris for Largest Insurance Industry, scoring 2,083.01 on the Risk Expulsion Effectiveness Rating.
